Pachyderm Pincushion
I made this pincushion out of felt. I modified a pattern that I found for free online. The legs are filled with plastic bean bag beans to help weight it down. It's fairly large for a pincushion but, it's great if you've got tons of pins. I used colorful ball head straight pins to embellish it. Thanks for looking.

I love this. I just have an old tomato pin cushion, but the elephant is just so much more fun.

Neato! it looks super awesome with the pins!
Must make it- maybe I could adapt it and make it a bit smaller.
